Business Dynamics and System ModelingChapter 4: Behavior of the System
Pard TeekasapSouthern New Hampshire University
Outline
1. Fundamental modes– Exponential growth– Goal seeking– Oscillation
2. Interaction of the fundamental modes– S-shaped growth– S-shaped growth with overshoot– Overshoot and collapse
What are the system behaviors come from?
• The behavior arises from its structure• Structure consists of the feedback loops, stock
and flow, and nonlinearities created by the interaction of the physical and institutional structure of the system
Common modes of behavior in dynamic systems

Characteristics of goal seeking
• If the relationship between the size the gap and the corrective action is linear, the rate of adjustment is exactly proportional to the size of the gap and the resulting goal-seeking behavior is exponential decay
• Pure exponential decay is characterized by its half life
• What are the examples of goal seeking behavior?

Oscillation
• The overshooting arises from the presence of significant time delays in the negative loop
• However, most real world oscillations is not perfectly regular. You shouldn’t expect it to be

Process Point
• When you see the behavior, you should know which type of loop is a dominant loop
• E.g. if you observe exponential growth, you know there is at least one positive feedback (and possibly more)
• However, there will be many negative loops as well. But the positive loops are dominant

S-shaped growth condition
• S-shaped growth happens only 1. The negative loops must not include any
significant time delays2. The carry capacity must be fixed
• Carry capacity is the capability of an environment to handle that variable
• What are the examples of S-shaped behavior?

S-shaped growth with overshoot
• S-shaped structure with significant time delays in the negative loops
• Time delays in the negative loops lead to the possibility that the state of the system will overshoot and oscillate around the carrying capacity
• What are the examples of S-shaped growth with overshoot?

Overshoot and Collapse
• Carrying capacity is reduced by the variables• E.g. the ability of the environment to support a
growing population is eroded or consumed by the population itself
• If there is no regeneration of the carrying capacity, the equilibrium of the system is extinction
• What are the examples of overshoot and collapse?
